Catcalls of NYC

Catcalls of NYC (founded by Sophie Sandberg) is a grassroots initiative that uses public chalk art to raise awareness about gender-based street harassment. The goal is to spur dialogue, provide a platform for story sharing, and promote cultural change.

Since Catcalls of NYC's birth in March 2016, it has inspired over 150 young activists around the world to start "Catcalls of" sites in their cities. Now, they make up Chalk Back, a global youth-led movement against gender-based harassment.

Chalk Back is a registered 501c3 non profit.
